Never miss a local story.

Yelling was developed in England during the Middle Ages as a way for noblemen (there were only men at that time, women hadn’t been invented yet) to be heard over the wailing of peasants. It evolved into a primary form of male communication used to express anger, outrage, sadness, joy, glee, merriment, pain and bliss.

There was a great deal of yelling in the Middle Ages.

Once women came along, some tried to raise their voices to be heard over the yelling of men. That’s when the phrase “not ladylike” was coined, by men, and a sensible and totally fair societal precedent was set:

This should lend some perspective to the reaction many men had to Clinton’s victory speech in the wake of Tuesday’s presidential primary wins.

Fox News host Howard Kurtz tweeted: “Hillary shouting her speech. She has the floor; a more conversational tone might be better for connecting with folks at home.”

Fox News political analyst and professional harrumpher Brit Hume tweeted: “Hillary having a big night in the primaries. So she’s shouting angrily in her victory speech. Supporters loving it. What’s she mad at?”

I don’t know what Clinton expects. Any right-thinking man knows that if a female candidate raises her voice in any way, it’s an expression of anger. It’s like when a mother has the nerve to cheer for her child from the sideline of a game — we all know she’s just angry that she isn’t the dad, who is presumably awesome and also on the sideline doing some perfectly appropriate yelling.

Of course, if any super-secure man has the guts to point out that Clinton — or any other non-penis-having person — is yelling, he is immediately branded a sexist by the radical womanocracy. These are the same femiknowitalls who promote absurd behavior, like being respectful, not starting unnecessary wars and “listening.” (Blech.)

But there is nothing sexist about believing in the sanctity of traditional speaking volumes. Men yell, women don’t — IT’S IN THE BIBLE, I THINK!!!

You don’t hear Clinton’s Democratic opponent Bernie Sanders or GOP frontrunner Donald Trump yelling, do you? No. They are merely gravitas-ing and expressing their anger in a manppropriate manner.

If Clinton wants to occasionally raise her voice or shout out to rally her supporters, she should do it in the privacy of her own home, assuming Bill gives her the all-clear.

Because there is nothing more insulting to strong, in-no-way-threatened men than a woman who raises her voice. If we let that happen, we might hear her.

And that could really shake up the order we’ve tried so hard to preserve.
